Answer 4

There's something wrong with your self esteem if you feel bad because some people are racist towards. Kick their heads in! They're the losers, not you! I never tolerate racism from anybody, and I never feel bad if people discriminate against me. It makes me feel superior to them that I don't hold such base, irrational prejudices.

God made you. Be happy. s***w what anyone else thinks, as long as you think your comfortable and happy about yourself, nothing matters.

1. Just ignore all the negative comments from the audience referring towards your assume "identify issue". You are simply asking questions, somethings that is encouraged and is the basic foundation of this website. So ask away.

2. Secondly:No I'm not bothered the least bit upon myself when people make racist comments towards me or other of my background. My mother is: Afro-Guyanese, Indo-Brazilian, Indian & my father: West African, Chinese, & Guyanese as well. I may be bothered for THEIR sakes due to the useless delusion that they should be racist when we're all people. So when racist comments come flying my way I either don't even stress & ignore or I shut them down verbally, making them regret they even dared to say such. When one is attempting to guess my ethnicity I like being an ethnic puzzle and when they do fail to guess correctly I enjoy explaining it to them, being proud of each background.

Don't let those parasites devour your positivity, they thrive on you. Don't let them.

Answer 8

if you hate yourself, kill yourself.

if not, stop complaining. there are worse things in life than labels, some of us have jobs and kids to feed and dont got time to be worryin about "whether society categorises me as black or white". My mom is hispanic, my father is west indian, and me and my siblings deal with it just fine. Almost everyone south of the border is mixed race, youre not the first person to have to deal with an identity crisis.

if you wanna be white, be white (have fun with that!). if you wanna be a minority, be a minority. And if you wanna be you, be you. But stop b!tchin about it, cuz complaining never helped anyone. Workin to overcome peoples ignorance brings results, whining about your own identity issues wont get you nowhere.

if a brown bird and a white bird gave birth to a beige one, im sure the offspring wouldnt spend time feelin sorry for himself, he would be out there learnin how to fly so he can catch that worm. Real Talk

Why would you say you're not White if you look like it, unless you think you're not good enough?

And for that matter why should you have to look fully European to be White anyway? Ever considered that?

I know I know, the definition of White doesn't include mixed-race people right? Well, maybe that definition is racist and wrong. Think about that ever?

You don't have to identify as "biracial" or "mulatto" just because you are mixed-race. You can be White. Agree? Disagree? Check out my blog and see why.

Answer 10

Do i Hate stupid ppl asking dumb qquestions...whyy yes!

Answer 11

I embrace all of me. I really could care less about what people think. when the people start paying my bills and taking care of me then they have an input in my life, in the meantime. I just keep it real. I stand up for myself and keep it moving. It can be annoying at times, but eventually people will either accept or not. Keep your head up.  

Answer 12

I think there is more ignorance than racism, so don't confuse them because they aren't the same thing. I agree that it is hard, especially for the people who have one parent who is 100% of one race and another who 100% of another. I'm sort of mixed, my dad is white and my mom is only half white, it is hard for me sometimes but not when people say ignorant things about me but when I feel pride for my white side I feel like a trader, it's like I don't know what to be proud of. It's sounds easy because I should be proud of both but for some reason that's difficult for me.

By the way, that other part would be native american.

EDIT: But by what I said I don't mean that I would rather not be mixed because I loooooooove being mixed but it just gets confusing at times.

Answer 13

but in many countries they dont like each other, such as latin america, some dont like the peruvians, some dont like the nicaraguans. and in asia  the north and south korea. in russia dont like Georgians, the congo with all the many problems, i can go on an on with so much dislike in this world

Answer 14

I am Filipino, German, Spainsh, English, Irish and Scottish. I don't hate being mixed. I don't allow racist people devalue me as a person.

Answer 15

rest safe in the knowledge that lots and lots of people are of mixed race even if they dont look it..I am irish and english, my grandfather came to england with all the irish many years ago..so by definition..I am an immigrant in my own country...and its true for so many people round the world (ie the whole of usa that isnt native american are all immigrants and lets face it, human life began in africa, so we are all african origin if you follow it back..thats why racism is meaningless)
